US NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID): Halting TB Transmission in HIV-Endemic and Other High-Transmission Settings (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

This opportunity uses the R01 Research Project Grant funding mechanism.

Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Number: RFA-AI-18-037

The objectives of this Funding Opportunity Announcement are to promote research to:

understand the critical drivers of TB transmission at the individual and population levels in high-burden settings, particularly where high incidence of HIV co-infection contributes to TB rates. (This may include the aerobiology of infectious particles and environmental- and population-based factors.)

develop potential interventions to prevent TB transmission in HIV-endemic and other high-transmission settings and to measure the rate of transmission underpinned by an increased understanding of the biomedical basis of transmission and related risk factors.

Funding & Duration

Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project.
